Name that Game

[Yoda]

Damn, would've nailed the Ghouls and Ghosts... C'mon, who doesn't recognize that level one boss? Super Ghouls and Ghosts on the other hand had that stupid long-necked bird!

 

[TehZmann]

did i get the last one correct?

 

[Yoda]

Uhh, I'm pretty sure you did, judging from some googling...

 

[TehZmann]

Ok next one

 

[Kimi3013]

Gem Fire?

 

[TehZmann]

Wow good job!

 

[Sparky]

did i get the last one correct?

Yep, it is indeed Mouse Trap

 

[Rett Mikhal]

Not quite as crazy a contraption as I remember it being.

 

[Yoda]

Yeah I have no legitimacy to post one, but what the heck:

It's a toughie!

 

[Jadzia]

I recognise the trees from the few times I have googled for "tilesets".

I'll guess Zelda.

I have never seen nor played this game.

 

[Yoda]

Oh boy! I'm unwilling to give it to you. Of course you're in the right franchise, but no it's not the first Zelda game so let's at least get the right number, if not the right full title!

 

[CorporalCaptain]

It's Zelda: A Link to the Past. It's the only one I know. What do I win?

 

[Yoda]

You win putting up a screenshot of your own and keeping the game alive

 

[CorporalCaptain]

Yay! I win a free photobucket account!

OK, then, try this blast from the past:

 

[Yoda]

Army Movement 2: Horse Lords?

 

[CorporalCaptain]

No! You're warm though.

 

[Canadave]

It looks familiar, but I can't place it... is it the first Lords of the Realm or something like that?

 

[CorporalCaptain]

Now that is definitely warm.

 

[CorporalCaptain]

Hints:

It's A DOS game.
In its day, it won a wargame-of-the-year-type award.
Its creator still writes successful games, and you've probably heard of his sleeper hit from a few years ago.

Warlords?
